VINNOL® E 18/38

VINNOL® E 18/38 by Wacker is a vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate-copolymer resin designed for solvent-based ink-jet inks. It forms a film when the solvent contained in the formulation has evaporated. It shows improved interaction with pigment surfaces and adheres extremely well to flexible PVC along with numerous other substrates. In very low-viscosity inks, it counteracts the tendency of the pigment particles to agglomerate and sediment. It is highly resistant to oil, grease, dilute aqueous acids, alkalis and saline solutions, aliphatic hydrocarbons and alcohols. VINNOL® E 18/38 complies with the Food & Drug Administration in the US (FDA 21 C.F.R Sections 175.300 and 175.105).
